1 CHS/CTH 6620 DLS VARIETIES OF EARLY CHRISTIAN THOUGHT ASHLAND THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY Fall Semester 2017 Online (Aug. 28-Dec. 14) Brenda B. Colijn, PhD Professor of Biblical Interpretation and Theology (419) (office) (614) (home) I. Course Description This is a reading and research seminar in extant literature produced by the church in the patristic period (ca. A.D ). Its goal is a working knowledge of early Christian thought in its unity and diversity, continuity and development. This course utilizes an online component (Blackboard) as its major teaching medium. Access to a reliable computer and the internet through a high-speed means (dial-up access does not usually work satisfactorily in this course) is required, as is familiarity with the use of Blackboard (assistance in Blackboard is provided in video format within the course). It is highly recommended that you be familiar with computer and web functions prior to starting the course since it is not advised to try to learn them while the course is in progress. Online learning often requires more self-motivation than a regular class and is not suitable for every student. II. Student Learning Outcomes As a result of this course, students will be able to do the following: 1. Use Scripture responsibly in evaluating patristic sources. 2. Not assessed 3. Not assessed 4a. Articulate the content and themes of selected patristic sources. 4b. Engage in critical historical and theological reflection on patristic sources. 5. Not assessed 6. Apply insights from patristic sources to life and ministry. III. Course Requirements A. Textbooks and other reading Athanasius, On the Incarnation (available from Christian Classics Ethereal Library at Jurgens, William A., ed. and trans. The Faith of the Early Fathers. 3 vols. Collegeville, MN: Liturgical Press, Litfin, Bryan M. Getting to Know the Church Fathers: An Evangelical Introduction. 2 nd ed. Grand Rapids: Baker, Ramsey, Boniface. Beginning to Read the Fathers. Rev. ed. Mahwah, NJ: Paulist Press, B. Attendance According to the Student Handbook, attendance at all class sessions is expected, unless the professor has been notified in advance and has approved the absence. Students should be on time and should stay through the duration of all classes. Any student missing more than six class hours (2 weeks) will be required to do additional work, receive a lower grade, audit or withdraw from the class, or be penalized otherwise at the discretion of the professor.

2 2 Because this is an online course, attendance is measured by participation in weekly discussions and timely submission of assignments. Students are expected to participate every week unless an exception is granted by the professor for extraordinary circumstances. NOTE: As part of your course attendance, you are expected to watch lectures and read posted handouts. C. Assignments/Assessment of Student Learning This class will be delivered entirely online in Blackboard. To access Blackboard, go to and login. Please contact the professor immediately if on the first day of the semester you cannot access the course. You must log in several times each week (daily is recommended) to access announcements, content, and discussions. You are responsible for all information posted in the online course and all information sent to your ashland.edu account. All papers must be submitted in the Blackboard course. Discussion postings will be graded on quantity, clarity, depth of insight, support for claims and arguments, meaningful interaction with other students, and integration of personal thought with course materials. Papers will be graded on clarity, coherence, depth of insight, and constructive engagement with course content. For all posts and papers, any sources you use must be appropriately documented in the text. All such material must be quoted exactly, using quotation marks, or paraphrased completely. Any biblical references should be documented in parentheses in the text. Papers should use gender-inclusive language about people and should conform to Turabian style. You are responsible to follow the ATS Writing Handbook. (See the link in the Blackboard course.) For due dates see the course outline. Online discussion. Each week a discussion question will be posted in the folder for that week. You will discuss the question as a class or in small groups, depending on the number of students in the class. The instructor will moderate the discussion and will sometimes contribute to it. You must post at least once in response to the discussion prompt, including a substantive question for further discussion, and you must also respond to at least one post by another student. See Discussion Posting Guidelines in the Course Resources folder for further information. Each week s discussion is worth 5 points. Your first post is due by Wednesday at 11:55 pm; failure to meet this deadline means a deduction of 3 points. Your first response is due by Friday at 11:55 pm; missing this deadline means a deduction of 2 points. The purpose of the assignment is to create a thoughtful theological conversation. Constructive disagreement is encouraged, but courtesy at all times is required. Any discourtesy will result in a deduction from your grade. Length: variable. Research paper on patristic writer. Choose one of the writers listed in the course schedule to study in depth, familiarizing yourself with both primary and secondary literature so that you can serve as a resource person for class discussion. Write a research paper exploring the writer s life, characteristic concerns, and contributions to the development of Christian thought. Support your discussion with the use of both primary sources and secondary sources (both articles and books). The paper must be typed and double-spaced, and must conform to Turabian style. Length: 6-8 pages. Due: when the writer appears in the course schedule.

3 3 Research paper on patristic theme. Select a particular theme and analyze it in the works of several patristic writers (at least three). Reflect on the theme in light of Scripture, discuss the significance of the theme in the development of theology, and draw any relevant applications for the life and thought of the church today. Use both primary sources and secondary sources (both articles and books). See the doctrinal index in Jurgens for help finding primary material on a theme. The paper must be typed and double-spaced, and must conform to Turabian style. Length: 8-10 pages. Due: last day of class. D.

V. Recommendations for Lifelong Learning To develop a deeper understanding of the church fathers, start by reading the selections we did not read in the anthology. If you have not done so, read a survey of the development of theology during the period, such as Gonzalez, Pelikan, or Kelly. Select one of the fathers to study in more depth. Read the section on that father in Quasten s Patrology. Use the selections in our anthology to guide you to complete works by that father. Many works are available in the Ancient Christian Writers series (Paulist Press). The course bibliography will direct you to other useful resources. VI. Seminary Guidelines A. ATS Academic Integrity Policy Ashland Theological Seminary expects each student to uphold the Seminary s core value of academic excellence by contributing to an environment that is both challenging and supportive. In such an environment a student will neither seek nor offer improper assistance. All students have an obligation to be forthright in their academic endeavors and to respect ethical standards. The work that one submits for academic evaluation must be one s own, unless an instructor expressly permits certain types of collaboration. Academic integrity requires that each student will use one s own capabilities to achieve one s fullest potential and will neither offer nor accept aid that is not in keeping with regularly accepted standards of academic integrity. Failure to conform to this conduct shall constitute academic dishonesty. The full Academic Integrity Policy statement may be found in the Student Handbook. B. Seminary Writing Consultation Service The Seminary Writing Consultation Service can help you brainstorm, draft, and revise your writing assignments in your graduate Seminary classes. Masters-qualified Consultants can advise you online or in person. your request for assistance to swc_group@ashland.edu. Include the following information: your name, the course number and professor s name, a brief description of the assignment, and your timeline. For more information, visit:
